I've been trying here without success and I haven't even had ANY pina coladas. I feel like Karen trying to post a poll!!!!

click on the picture you want to insert. Then right click on in and select "copy image location". Then open up a new post and type [img] and then [/img], then paste the link to (location of) the picture in between. Make sure that there isn't a space between either IMG and the first or last letter of the link. It should look like this:

Ok now i really am going to bed!

Thanks, Josef!! GREAT site!! I put that one in my Favorites!

I'm too tired (all that , ya know!**) to look at them all right now, but this one caught my eye. Sophie loves to pose like a prairie dog too!

**I had ONE pina colada all night. I'm a bit of wimp on a week night.

I'm glad you liked that site!! Most of those pictures are hilarious!

One of our friends (actually, it's the couple that lives in Rockland, Mass) has a dachshund that does prairie dog. Hunter does not, apparently it's really bad for their backs.

I'll have to make you one of my a pina coladas sometime. I make them with Captain Morgan instead of coconut rum. It gives them a slightly differnet, spicier flavor. They were the rage at our cinco de mayo party!

Hmmmm.... early August sounds like a good "sometime"!!

In the meanwhile, you'll have to send me your recipe so I can try it out!

We received our beads yesterday, less than a week since ordering and figuring out how they got their name. I are not so smaht.

Heck yeah it would! Just give me a blender and the cap'n and i'll make it happ'n!!

Most of my drink recipes are stored up in the ol' noggin and are poured by feel instead of a specific measured amount, but translated, it would be something like this:

It's the same as most pina colada recipes, except you replace the regular rum with spiced rum. Works best with a glass 16 oz or larger.

-Fill the glass with ice, then dump into blender, and add a few more cubes
-4 to 6 shots of the Cap'n.
-1-2 shots of pinepalle juice.
-Pour enough mix in to make the ice begin to float.

-Let 'er rip!

Notes: I like to watch it as it blends to see if i need to add more of any one of the ingredients. I am also undecided about the pineapple juice. Sometimes I leave it out. In any case, the idea is to be able to taste the spices in the rum, so if in doubt, add more!

I stili have no idea why Karen's handle is Nerak. And I have no idea why Nerak's name is Karen. I'm confused.

[Seakony]

I really think the name is all wrong. They should be called MONKEY BEADS!

Your innate confusion is part of your appeal, Erik. It's downright endearing!
